Topic 2: Controlled microstructure materials

This axis mainly focused on the elaboration of controlled microstructure material by classical process such as forging or casting…. This concerns a better forecast and understanding of metallurgy in different ways:

Controlling material elaboration to assure properties defined previously in technical specifications as microstructure, mechanical properties, inclusion cleanliness…. this step could be coupled with the other axis of MSE team (heat treatment, coatings…)

Predicting the residual stress generated by the elaboration process on the part by different methods (experimentations, simulation…). Associated with the microstructure control, this prediction could be implemented on models to improve machinability or low pressure treatments.
